The production plant in Suzhou meets all the quality requirements for supplying micronutrient premixes to the World Food Programme.
Mühlenchemie's production facility in Suzhou now meets all the quality requirements for supplying the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) with micronutrient premixes, after a comprehensive audit by the Global Alliance for Improved Nutrition (GAIN). GAIN was commissioned by the World Food Programme to ensure that it maintains the highest quality standards in the production of foods for the WFP.
This is the fourth Mühlenchemie plant to be certified by the NGO after Germany, Mexico and the USA. It widens the company"s international network of production facilities in which fortified foods can be produced locally according to the same high-quality standards.
With a network of five production plants and 18 applications laboratories extending from Europe through Africa to Central America and Asia, Mühlenchemie responds to the worldwide demand for vitamin and mineral premixes for use in flour fortification. Besides selling solutions for flour standardization on the free market, Mühlenchemie now meets the quality requirements to participate in tenders for contracts with the WFP in Asia, too. The audit confirmed that the plant in Suzhou meets the stringent requirements of the WFP. The certificate now permits the facility to offer vitamin and mineral premixes for "Super Cereal", the nutritious maize and soy mixture of the United Nations World Food Programme. To ensure continuous quality management, Mühlenchemie has also invested in a humidity chamber in which real-time stability tests of its own can be carried out on-site, without recourse to outside laboratories.
